Hello and welcome back to the psych legal pop podcast. This is a podcast where we talk about popular culture through the lens of an attorney and a therapist. I'm Brooke Brigham and I'm the attorney. And I'm Tess Brigham. I'm the therapist. So today we are going to talk about the Murdaugh murders.

We spent about five minutes before we started debating.

Do we say Murta, Murdoch?

Yeah.

How do we pronounce this last name?

The pronunciations of this guy's name are all over the place.

I don't think anybody really knows the proper pronunciation.

And I don't think the people in the family do either.

Well, I heard him, he was in court, and they asked him to state his name.

And he said, Alexander Murda.

Okay.

Okay.

But I think that's with a southern accent.

So if you take out the Southern accent, it's probably Murda. Merda. It's not doc, like people are saying. There's no O-C-K in there. And, yeah, his name's Alexander, but sometimes people call him Alec. But it's really Alex. It's really Alex. So that's also weird too.

Whatever.

You know who we're talking about. Yeah.

Well, I also have another question that maybe is really a stupid question, but what is

low country?

Explain that to me.

What is low country?

Low country, now this is very rudimentary.

And ironically, our mother's mother is from Beaufort, South Carolina.
